These Are the Absolute Best Mother’s Day Gifts for 2019

Our moms do a lot for us: They raise us, they put up with us during our teen years, and, even after that, they spend the next decades worrying about us. Mother's Day should probably be every day—but on the one official occasion we're supposed to do it up for Mom, it's more important than ever to find a unique gift she's going to love. So the stakes are high. But never fear: We've gone ahead and identified the absolute best of the best, the products that are just as special and cool as Mother Dearest.

For Mother's Day 2019, the options include a chic piece of carry-on luggage (for all those visits to go see you, of course); a sheet mask that’s basically a hydrating, glow-inducing miracle in a packet; a tote that truly holds it all; a pair of sparkling peacock earrings that are sure to turn heads; even some house plants. We’ve also thrown in a few great picks for new moms too, because, although you can’t gift them what they really need—a two-hour nap—these gift ideas will make life a little less stressful (and yes, their sleep a little more sound).

Read on for our picks for the best Mother's Day gifts for every kind of mom.

If she’s breaking glass ceilings…

A sleek work bag that holds everything she needs for her appointment-packed schedule—plus a pair of leggings, just in case she feels like going to an after-work yoga class. In chic forest green, Coach’s Market Tote is a conversation starter too. Plus, the brand is having a Mother's Day sale, so you can get this style for 30 percent off.

If she’s into vegan beauty…

This minimalist beauty brand is maybe most well-known for its Calm bath salts, but Herbivore’s blue tansy mask is a thing of wonder. It’s a gel mask that cools while it soothes skin and resurfaces it with fruit enzymes, and the clay and aloe in it help with unclogging pores. It’s a game changer in a tub.

If you both live in different states (or countries!)

It can be hard not having Mom around IRL to share a glass of wine and hash out life’s problems. Upgrade her luggage for the trips you share together (and drop a little hint that you’d like her to book a flight out stat).

If she has a green thumb…

Forget those monstera plants everyone you know has. I saw one of these gorgeous plants in a friend’s apparent the other week—I’m no plant mom type, but I fell in love with its gorgeousness. The leaves are striking, with gradients of green and a delicate red vein running through the center (she’ll definitely have to be ready for compliments). Just pick up a cute ceramic pot (like this one, $35) and it'll make the best Mother's Day gift.

If she’s just trying to sleep...

This incredible weighted mask plus a gift card for a spa treatment will result in eternal gratitude from your new-mom BFF. It's filled with microbeads to promote relaxation and encourage a very sound nap (they also handily contour to her face).

If she’s a mom toting for two (or more)...

This diaper bag is an Instagram-mom favorite, thanks to its smart style, reasonable price, and durability—but there’s more to it than that: It’s basically a Mary Poppins bag for moms on the go, just way more organized (think insulated pockets for bottles, a pocket for wet clothes, and even a pocket that dispenses tissues).

If she’s as obsessed with sheet masks as you are…

Four face masks for $80 might seem pricey, but the package contains four little packets of wonder: I did one with my own mother last year, and the next morning her skin looked plumper and glowier, mine notably less tired and brighter. Whether you put an at-home spa day for you and her together, or just want to send her a way to treat herself, these are pretty much the best.

If she could use an extra dose of calm…

Whether she’s raising four kids and in demand at the office, or she’s just having a time of it at work right now, this much loved essential oil diffuser—and air purifier!—delivers a pfft of calm every 30 seconds. Gift her a favorite oil to go with (lavender oil is a good pick for relaxation), and she’ll be feeling chilled out in no time.

If she’s the arty type...

New perfume will brighten anyone’s day, and Tocca’s new Gia fragrance, inspired by Georgia O'Keeffe, is all about honoring individual creativity—oh, and it also straight up smells amazing. It starts with pink pepper and tangerine before evolving into Turkish rose in the middle, with lingering amber, sandalwood, and vanilla.

If she loves having someone over for wine…

Sure, Mom might already have a set of six wine glasses, but if she’s basically the neighborhood socialite, consider upgrading—and expanding—her stemware supplies. A lot of people buy either white or red wine glasses and use them for both types of wine, which, no judgment here; I do the same. But if your mom could use a few more glasses, peep which kind she has now, then splash out on glasses for the opposite color of wine. Practical and luxe? That’s something she’ll appreciate.
